Community Governance Review (Parish Review)

The purpose of a Parish Review is to re-examine parish council boundaries and related electoral arrangements, including parish council wards and the numbers of parish councillors.

The Parish Review provides an opportunity for lots of groups of people to comment on the current arrangements and make suggestions to improve things in future. We want to hear from:

  • Town and Parish Councils
  • Town, Parish and District Councillors
  • MP's
  • MEP's
  • local political parties
  • members of the public.

We are carrying out the review in two parts. Firstly the parishes that comprise the Woodspring parliamentary constituency in the north of the district - see the Community Governance Review Notice for the full listing of parishes involved.

The Community Governance Review Report sets out the detailed process for the Parish Review.

To give residents an opportunity to tell us what they think about our recommendations and the proposed boundary mapping changes we have published our draft recommendations online.

To comment on the draft recommendations and find out more about the review visit the Parish Review Consultation 2008 section.
